Velozo Sniffs Out Wilson's Triple Barrel Bluff

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Simon Wilson
Simon Wilson

Simon Wilson raised on the button, and Gonzalo Velozo defended his big blind.

Velozo check-called a bet of around 2,200 from Wilson on the 689 flop.

The 3 came on the turn, and Velozo check-called a second barrel from Wilson, this time for 8,900.

Velozo checked for a final time on the 2 river, and Wilson jammed, covering him. With his remaining 27,000 and tournament life on the line, Velozo was deep in the tank before eventually making the call.

Wilson immediately said, "Good call," as he tabled J7 for a busted straight draw. Velozo turned over K9 for a pair of nines, earning himself a double-up to more than the starting stack.
